True James Joyce fans don't need to be reminded that today, June 16th, is the 110th Bloomsday--the day of Leopold Bloom's fictional wanderings-about-Dublin commemorated in the 732 pages of Ulysses. Though the most traditional way to celebrate Bloomsday may be to follow in his literal footsteps with your own tour of the city, as the Paris Review explains, there's more than one way to prove your love for Joyce even if you never read his book.
